1 of 495 tests failed, on Solaris 8 Sparc : FAIL: check10.test

[Dennis Clarke]

I was rather surprised to see this result on a fresh build of automake
1.10.2 where I used Sun Studio 11 compiler ( recent patches applied ) on
Solaris 8 ( also recently patched ).

I ran the test manually and saw this :

$ ./check10.test

I don't know what details to look for here. Any thoughts ?
